I have used them several times and they work great and feel wonderful. You must be very careful and have someone do this for you and you can do it for them as they burn and you are on your side. They pull all the old built up wax from the inner ear canal with the heat causing the slightest upward draft, it is very soothing. I get my ear candles at a local health food store. Good luck

It can be dangerous. Melted wax can adhere to the eardrum. See a doctor instead. If you do this home remedy wrong the pain can be excruciating. I would not want a burning candle in my ear. Although in many cases it does work. Try new age stores and boutiques. Weigh the risks.

Yes I have used them before I used to get alot of ear infections when I was little. They really do work. You might be able to find them at a all natural health food store.
